Answer: x=-20

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable(x) by dividing each side by factors (50) that do not contain the variable.

Answer:

The value of x is -20.

Step-by-step explanation:

50 = -2.5x Isolate the variable by dividing -2.5 on both sides

-20 = x

You must isolate the variable in order to solve equations with variables.

Isolating variable is basically when you divide, multiply, add, or subtract to put a variable on <em><u>ONLY</u></em> one side of the equation.

Brut [27]

Answer:

about $709 per month

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so in order to solve this question, we should follow this formula:

3,000 + 24x $\geq$ 20,000

where 24 is the amount of time we have and x is the variable we are using as to show the unknown amount of money earned per month.

3,000 + 24x $\geq$ 20,000

-3,000 -3,000

24x $\geq$ 17,000

/24 /24

x $\geq$ approximately 709 dollars

so, we substitute x for 709

3,000 + 24(709) $\geq$ 20,000

3,000 + 17,016 $\geq$ 20,000

20,016 $\geq$ 20,000

which is true

Hope this helps :)

What is measure of angle R?

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

$R=28.07^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

In the right triangle PQR

The sine of angle R is equal to divide the opposite side to angle R (PQ) by the hypotenuse (PR)

$sin(R)=\frac{PQ}{PR}$

substitute the values

$sin(R)=\frac{8}{17}$

Find the measure of angle R

using a calculator

$R=sin^{-1}(\frac{8}{17})$

$R=28.07^o$
